To be honest I think Hickey would be an AI grifter in the modern world. Gibson though I can see them hopping on analog trends. Clean girl aesthetic. Very proud of their digital planner and book collection (half of which they have not read.) On their anniversary hickey hands him a piss-filtered ai generated image of them together and they end up arguing about it until they start making out instead.
Tbh I kind of get why Billy was #likethat because I’ve just spent the past hour brushing and cleaning a woollen naval overcoat and never want to do it again. If I had to do that three times a day (possibly more) in the arctic while being lead poisoned I might also float the idea of a mutiny by my evil boyfriend. (Also I had a lint roller and the sweet sweet sounds of Petula Clark going for me and he wouldn’t have had that which makes it so much worse)
Girls who'll clothe me
Girls who'll feed me
Girls who'll want me
Girls who'll need me
All you pretty things
Waiting for somebody...
Hickey and his girls! Loosely based on All The King's Men by Wild Beasts.
You know I gotta follow-up Hickey with Billy Gibson, everybody's second favorite bitchy steward. So take a second playlist for day 2 of @cold-boy-tapes
If it weren't for the bit, this playlist would be all-women. To me, Billy has the same music taste as the most problematic (non-swiftie) white woman you know with a little riot grrrl thrown in for funsies.
Best listened to on shuffle, and as a palate cleanser after Hickey's playlist. Songs under cut!
